After-Hours Coverage
Neurology practices lose calls on weekends and evenings when the office is dark. MedReception's after-hours AI receptionist answers every incoming call, captures structured intake including seizure history, medication lists, and symptom onset, and escalates urgent cases according to your triage rules. Summaries are returned as structured, EMR-pasteable text for your team to review and file Monday morning or handed to on-call staff immediately.

Neurology intake requires precision: medication names, dosages, seizure type, aura symptoms, and family history all matter. MedReception's specialty-trained templates ask the right questions on every call and return structured summaries your neurologists can trust. No caller has to repeat their story Monday morning.
Your practice sets the escalation rules: status post stroke, first seizure, sudden vision change, or severe headache triggers an immediate call to your on-call neurologist. The AI hands off with a complete intake summary. Non-urgent calls are logged for Monday scheduling.
Neurology referrals often come on Friday evening or Saturday morning. Closed office means closed door. MedReception answers, captures insurance and callback preferences, and books the appointment into your schedule. Your team wakes up Monday with new patients already logged and ready to confirm.
Whether you use Elation, athenahealth, or another major EHR, MedReception's intake summaries are returned as structured text for staff review and filing. If you switch EHRs later, your AI receptionist moves with you. No re-setup, no lost configuration.

MedReception answers immediately, asks about onset, associated symptoms, and current medications. Based on your escalation rules, the call is routed to your on-call neurologist with a complete intake summary. The AI does not diagnose or decide; your provider makes the clinical call.
MedReception integrates with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, and Nextech. Appointment bookings, new patient records, and demographics sync automatically. Intake summaries are returned as structured text for staff review and filing. If your EHR is not listed, custom integration is available; book a demo and we will scope yours.
Yes. MedReception asks for medication names, dosages, and frequency on every call and returns them in a structured summary. Staff review the summary before filing to the chart. If the patient is unclear or the AI needs clarification, it asks follow-up questions. The AI does not prescribe or change medications.
Launch takes about one week from signup. Your EHR connection and phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering the number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. We customize your intake templates and escalation rules during onboarding so your team is ready to go live.
You can update escalation rules, specialty questions, and on-call routing anytime through your MedReception dashboard. All edits and optimizations are included at no extra cost for the life of your account.
